Knobby Underwear Subscription
Perfect for: the dad who never upgrades his underwear
Force Dad to chuck away his old undies when you gift him his very own Knobby underwear subscription. Gift him access to the Undie Club and gift him a new pair of underwear every month for three, six or 12 months.
But if a subscription isn't his thing, you can also buy him a one-off pair of Knobby's sustainable underwear made from recycled plastic bottles and bamboo.
Making it the gift that keeps on giving, Knooby will donate $1 from every order to charity. You can choose to have your order donation sent to The Starlight Foundation, The Seabin Project or Women's Community Shelters.

Perfect for: the dad who likes a Sunday sleep-in
Making the perfect year-round dressing gown, this Hommey Sage Robe will make your dad want to get up early just to slip it on. It is 100 per cent cotton and available in small/medium or large/XL.
Not his colour? There are heaps of others available including rocky road stripes, latte and milkshake.

Perfect for: the dad who can't live without good coffee
